| I press repeat, rewinding the last line
|
| Spending all my time wrapped up in you
|
| Days drift by, in visions and half-rhymes
|
| Confusion and lifelines till I feel brand new
|
| Sitting in my bedroom with my headphones
|
| Brother on the settee with the TV on
|
| Mother will be tired when she gets home
|
| Close my eyes, and lean on you
|
| Sing me songs of wisdom, and every word is a lullaby
|
| Hold me close and listen, and turn this grey into bright sunshine
|
| When I was that little girl, lost in the world, you painted my sky
|
| So sing me songs of wisdom, and tell me it’s gonna be alright, alright
|
| Falls forward, a day and a lifetime
|
| I’m too busy to make time for looking back
|
| And days fly by in the blur of the headlights
|
| A whirlwind in my mind and I’m losing track
|
| But when the video is singing out that old song
|
| I am right back in my bedroom with my headphones on
|
| And everyone reminds me where I come from
|
| Close my eyes, and lean on you
|
| Sing me songs of wisdom, and every word is a lullaby
|
| Hold me close and listen, and turn this grey into bright sunshine
|
| When I was that little girl, lost in the world, you painted my sky
|
| So sing me songs of wisdom, and tell me it’s gonna be alright, alright
|
| I never knew about this love before
|
| Changing everything and opening doors
|
| I got a little bit, and now I want more
|
| You’re setting me free
|
| I’m not waiting for my life to stop
|
| Don’t let this crazy world pull me apart
|
| If I’ve got you, I’ve got what I need
|
| I’ve got what I need
|
| Sing me songs of wisdom, and every word is a lullaby
|
| Hold me close and listen, and turn this grey into bright sunshine
|
| When I was that little girl, lost in the world, you painted my sky
|
| So sing me songs of wisdom, and tell me it’s gonna be alright, alright
|
| It’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright
|
| Gonna be alright |
